Cationic polypeptides isolated from cytoplasmatic granules of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and platelets are biologically active. Low molecular weight, arginine-rich polypeptides show a specific mast celldegranulating and histamine-releasing effect and increase vascular permeability by this mechanism. Higher molecular cationic polypeptides from subcellular granules increase vascular permeability by a histamineindependent mechanism, promote emigration of leukocytes and show antibacterial activity.
